National Police Chief: The Polarization Effects Of The 2019 Elections Are Still Being Felt Until Now

JAKARTA - National Police Chief General Listyo Sigit Prabowo stated that the polarization that occurred during the 2019 General Election (Pemilu) is still being felt today. Thus, the polarization must be completely eliminated.

"Since June 14, 2022, we have entered the stage of the 2024 General Election, while the 2019 Election still leaves problems that we can still feel today," said Sigit at the Bhayangkara 76th Anniversary ceremony in Semarang, Tuesday, July 5.

Polarization is very detrimental and dangerous for the unity of Indonesia. Because, the resulting effect is to divide society and the nation's children.

Thus, polarization should no longer occur at democratic parties, whether in the General Election, Presidential Election, Legislative Election, and the 2024 simultaneous regional head election.

"Social conflicts and divisions will certainly be a setback for the Indonesian nation," he said.

On this basis, the National Police on the 76th Bhayangkara Day raised the theme of unity and solidarity. The aim is as a starting point to prevent polarization and maintain diversity in Indonesia.

"The National Police raised the theme of unity and integrity as well as maintaining and guarding diversity as a potential to revive the community's economy and develop the potential of Indonesian youth and women who will lead Indonesia in the future," said Sigit.
